3.3Loading Documents

This section describes how to load documents onto the ScanSnap.

■How to load documents

1. Align the edges of the document.

Align the edges of the document as follows: 1) Straighten the edges of the document.

Straighten both edges of the document stack for scanning it correctly. 2) Check the number of sheets in the document stack.

The maximum number of sheets that can be loaded on the ScanSnap is as follows: For A4-size paper or smaller, a document stack of 5 mm or less (50 sheets at 64

g/m2 or at 17 lb).

Scanning accuracy increases when the

HINT

document is loaded onto the ScanSnap so

Step-like

 

 

 

that the leading edges of the paper form a

 

 

step-like pattern as shown in the figure.

 

 

 

Scanning direction

In the "ScanSnap Manager - Scan and Save Settings" dialog box, select the [Scanning] tab, and then click the [Option] button. In the "Read mode option" dialog box displayed, check whether the "Set the documents with its face up" checkbox is marked. If marked, load the document its face up and the bottom edge into ADF.

To prevent paper jams, fan the document as follows:

1)Extract the stack of documents of thickness 5 mm or less.

2)Hold the document with both hands and fan it out as shown in the figure below.

3)Turn the document 90 degrees, and then fan it in the different orientation again.

2.Load the document onto the paper chute.
